Going through it now; about 28 minutes in he is talking about the Aztec and their 52-year covenant with the devil--every 52 yeas, they perform a ritual to renew their covenant. As the --daniel papers point out, most accounts are scaled wrong, for example, Atlantis sank 900 years prior to Solon, not 9000, and the Sumerian "year" is actually a day.

Being raised Roman Catholic... if I apply the same scale error, I found that 52 times a year I had to attend a ritual at the church to renew my covenant... each and every Sunday--the "sun's day." Got to wonder if there is an astronomic correlation.

In ancient rocks, scientists see a climate cycle working across deep time

Scientists drilling deep into ancient rocks in the Arizona desert say they have documented a gradual shift in Earth's orbit that repeats regularly every 405,000 years, playing a role in natural climate swings. Astrophysicists have long hypothesized that the cycle exists based on calculations of celestial mechanics, but the authors of the new research have found the first verifiable physical evidence. They showed that the cycle has been stable for hundreds of millions of years,

Riddle me this... an "orbit" occurs when all gravitational forces are in balance, so there is no net inward or outward pull, right? So HOW can "gravitational forces" be pulling all over the place, altering orbits and some strong enough to pull our oceans up in the air several feet (tides)? That does not sound like gravitational balance to me... which means none of these orbits can be stable. Seems to be a "small hole" in their logic... though it must be a mini black hole, to provide all the extra influences to keep orbits going!
